Following, as I too am an aspec disaster 🤣🤣🤣

I literally adore Governor Newsom
He Understands The Assignment

Had dinner tonight with a friend who goes every day with a bunch of other septuagenarians to be “observers” at the immigration courts. ICE thugs routinely throw them out out of public courtrooms, and then public hallways, and then public waiting rooms as they grab immigrants who did nothing wrong.

Comment from user MMMMike: We all feel it: Cal is doing something crazy, but the stats tell us that Judge's OPS is even crazier. But how do we properly contextualize what Cal is doing? Going back to 1990, the median league leading HRs by a catcher is 29, with a standard deviation of 7.19. Cal at 60 HR is 4.31 standard deviations above the median. The probability of this happening is 0.001%, or a 1 in 100,000 chance. Judge is no slouch either: his OPS is 1.66 standard deviations above the median, 4.85% probability, or 1 in 21 chance. A fantastic year, but it pales in comparison to what Cal is doing as a catcher.

This note on Zach's piece from today gave me a new way to think about the MVP debate regarding the positional difference that feels a little more like comparing apples to apples.

Watching at home I literally stood up and yelled “oh my god!”

Cal Raleigh just hit his 60th home run this year, while catching for one of the best pitching staffs in the league. Respectfully, he’d be MVP going away if he played in the East.

A couple of my favorite New Yorkers!

Oregon, Washington, California form health care alliance to protect vaccine access The states' Democratic governors offered few specifics Wednesday as to how they hope the Western Health Alliance could influence which vaccines will be available in their states.

The West Coast Health Alliance is a great and necessary idea. As a Washington State resident, I wouldn’t be unhappy with a West Coast EVERYTHING Alliance.

work through your pain!

Wtf even is “state capitalism?” If the state owns the means of production, it’s *not capitalism*

DC statehood is now an imperative. No more dicking around. Next Dem majority, get it done immediately.

I thought I was over being a Gaines fan, but if he’s going to clap back like this at someone as influential as Franklin Graham, I might be one again

Announcers talking about Cal Raleigh not being as rested as Caminero, forgetting that Cal once caught every pitch of an 18 inning baseball game.

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander: "I don't think the line for the [Democratic] party right now is between progressives and moderates; I think it's between fighters and folders."

Bernie to Dems:

god damn he's cooking

Literally Senator John McCain was born and on a naval base in Panama, but was eligible to run for President because he was 👏 a 👏 natural 👏 born 👏 citizen 👏

Not “ICE” changing license plates in a back lot.

They wouldn’t do that, would they? Maybe the authorities should look into this.

Hmmmm…

He’s realizing he can’t do them in rural red states because he needs those folks to continue to believe the lies. And when they see what he’s doing up close, in ways that affect their neighbors or their local businesses, they see the truth of the cruelty.

US Veterans peacefully protesting Trump’s military birthday parade arrested at Capitol Hill. This is the moment a 80+ year old US veteran is taken away in handcuffs for practicing his 1st Amendment right. #3E #NoKings #NoKingsProtests (🎥 @gregjstoker.bsky.social )

To quote a classic 80’s movie: “The only way to win is not to play.”
